Samantha Grimes

My name is Samantha Grimes. I fell in love with group fitness at a young age as I would accompany my mom to her weekly group exercise classes. After taking my first Zumba class on my first day of college at Towson University in August 2012 I knew that I wanted to join the Zumba Nation. In November 2018 I became certified in Pound Fitness and started teaching Pound at Retro Fitness two weeks later. In 2024, five months after having a baby, I got certified in LaBlast Fitness! In January of 2025, I got certified in Les Mills Strength Development. I now teach on a weekly basis at Merritt Clubs in addition to being a full time teacher. Teaching through Fitness Travel is an amazing way to combine my love of music and fitness and share my fun, energetic, and engaging teaching style with others outside of the Greater Baltimore Area!
